       1. Draw Him a Steamy Bath

       The next time he's super stressed, fill the tub with hot water and offer to hop in and massage his tense muscle. Skip the candles and bubbles - they're not dude-friendly - but set up some of his favorite slow jams to help him chill.

       2. Say "Thanks"

        A recent study found that acknowledging small acts of generosity strengthens your relationship. Reason enough to tell him you appreciate his fixing your PC, replacing light bulbs, killing spiders, and all the other tasks guys take on for us.


       3. Initiate a Surprise Smooch

       Next time you're sitting together close - say you're catching a rerun of the Office or he's showing you a funny viral video - plant one his cheek or forehead. An unexpected kiss will make him feel so desired and so close to you.

        4. Pack His Lunch

       Send him off to work with a brown bag containing his favorite sandwich, snack, and dessert. Add a sweet (or naughty ) note for him to discover when he takes his lunch break, and he'll feel like a king.

        5. Stock his Kitchen

       Before a big game, fill his fridge and pantry with beer, soda, microwavable pizza, and other man-friendly grub he can easily grab when he's glued to the screen.

        6. Give Him Man - Time

       Bro- bonding time is ridiculously important to guys, and not coming off as controlling or clingy whenever he wants to meet up with them will impress the hell out of him.... and maybe make him want to cut the night short to come back to you.

       7. Make a Spotify Play list

       Compile all his favorite tunes on one go-to play list, incorporating some 90s hits you know were on contestants repeat during his high school days. It'll show him that you get his taste...including his goofy nostalgic love for Mmmbop.

        8. Plan a Cool Outing

        Skip the dinner and a movie thing and surprise him with an adrenaline-pumping date, like a visit to a rock- climbing gym or amusement park. Guys love being active, and the rush he'll get will make him feel super close to you
